3
3 properties on this block carry a tax abatement or major exemption. New construction and gut rehabs get the improvement value exempted for up to 10 years, so their tax bills sit far below their real value — block-wide, exemptions keep about $29,830 a year off the tax roll. Read the tax figures with that in mind.

6527 N 10th St is assessed at $300K but pays $3,291 a year — about 78% of the $4,202 it would owe at the statutory rate, because its new-construction value is abated.
